What happened to 1061? Is it the saville town problems? I don't think it was 1061 which was attacked. I think they used some parts/glass from 1061 to repair the one which was attacked Seemed a bit strange to take parts from another new bus for that could it not have gone to ADL to be fixed or leave that bus to be fixed in house. Seems silly cos you still got to fix a bus either way.

Sending it to ADL how many days out would that entail. Anyone seen 1061 recently?

Castleford Low Floor Spectra 706 was working out of Belle Isle today on 444
Also heard that ALX300 480 was working out of Castleford earlier this week, anyone know if these are permanent moves.

Yes It is in the process of been dismantled as it was only for show and had no interior.

So, from the new list, I would hazard a guess that 56 has now finished, but why have 495-498 gone and to where? Then we have to ask if 499 will go as well.

Then we have to ask if 499 will go as well. 495-498 have gone to Scotland go back to replys 58-59 for some more detail. For some reason 499 is staying how long for, who knows why keep just the one.

I don't get there logic I agree, it does seem strange when there are still 5 or 6 dependent on whether you count 56 in the numbers of the Step entrance Ikarus still at Dewsbury. I often wonder if the drivers there like those better than the ALX200 darts
